Othello
is the greatest general of his age. A
fearsome warrior, loving husband and revered defender of Venice against its
enemies.

But
he is also an outsider whose victories have created enemies of his own, men
driven by prejudice and jealousy to destroy him. As they plot in the shadows,
Othello realises too late that the greatest danger lies not in the hatred of
others, but his own fragile and destructive pride.

After more than a decade working in film and
television on projects from Star Wars to Holby City, Hugh Quarshie returns to
the RSC to play Shakespeare's Othello. He was last seen with the RSC in Faust
and Julius Caesar (1996). Lucian Msamati
is Iago, returning to the RSC following his role as Pericles in 2006.

The production is directed by Iqbal Khan (Much Ado About Nothing, 2012).

Magic of the Musicals

Candlelit tables with cheese and wine. All the great sounds from the musicals and a 70th tribute to VJ Day.

The ‘Beaux’: Mr Aimwell and Mr Archer, two charming,
dissolute young men who have blown their fortunes in giddy London. Shamed and debt-ridden, they flee to
provincial Lichfield. Their ‘Stratagem’:
to marry for money.

Lodged at the local inn, posing as master and servant, they
encounter a teeming variety of human obstacles: a crooked landlord, a fearsome
highwayman, a fervent French Count, a maid on the make, a drunken husband, a
furious butler, a natural healer and a strange, turbulent priest.

But their greatest obstacle is love. When the Beaux meet their match in Dorinda and
Mrs Sullen they are most at risk, for in love they might be truly discovered.

Live Broadcast: The Battle of Britain at 75

BBC Radio 2's The Battle Of Britain At 75 tells the epic story of the greatest aerial conflict of WW II. This live cinema experience comes from the iconic wartime fighter command station, RAF Biggin Hill.

Presenters Dermot O’Leary, Jeremy Vine and Sophie Raworth will be joined by the BBC Concert Orchestra and musicians from the Armed Forces and guest singers as they share compelling stories from the battle.

Rare archive footage from the conflict, modern day RAF personnel, and a cast of actors will bring those stories to life as we commemorate the 75th anniversary.

A 30 minute programme - exclusive to cinemas - will include a close up tour of a Spitfire and veteran fighter pilots recounting their memories of the Battle Of Britain.

The Battle Of Britain At 75 comes from the producers of the multi-award winning D-Day 70 Years On.

Best of Baroque

with the

European Union Chamber Orchestra

It is a great pleasure to welcome back the excellent European Union Chamber Orchestra when Director Hans-Peter Hofmann, and 18 musicians from across Europe, stop off again in Holyhead on their international tour.

A delightfully popular programme of fine music is in store - one most certainly not to be missed as it will sound stunning in the fine acoustic of the Centre. Add to your enjoyment by coming to the open rehearsal before the concert itself, and restore your energy with a pre-concert bite to eat in the Ucheldre Kitchen.

An opportunity to see a preview of the film with live satellite link of in conversation with Roger Waters after the screening.

Roger Waters, co-founder and primary songwriter of Pink Floyd, fuses the
epic and the personal in Roger Waters The Wall.

Written and directed by
Waters and Sean Evans, and filmed during Waters’ sold-out 2010–2013 The
Wall Live tour, it is a concert film that goes well beyond the stage,
giving audiences a visceral sense of being present and experiencing the
performance in a way that not even the best seat or backstage pass could
afford.
Based on the groundbreaking concept album, Roger Waters The Wall
could be called a concept film: it’s a state-of-the-art show that
dazzles the senses with pyrotechnics, phantasmagoric puppets, stunning
animations, audio effects and 360-degree sound, combined with an
intensely personal road trip that deals with the loss Roger has felt
throughout his life due to war. It’s bravura entertainment – yet it’s
also a spectacle with meaning, a stirring anti-war film about the human
cost of conflict.

Henry V

In the week of the
600th anniversary of the Battle of Agincourt, a chance to see Henry
V broadcast live by RSC from Stratford-upon-Avon.

Henry IV is dead and Hal is King. With England in a state of
unrest, he must leave his rebellious youth behind, striving to gain the respect
of his nobility and people.

Laying claim to parts of France and following an insult from
the French Dauphin, Henry gathers his troops and prepares for a war that he
hopes will unite his country.

RSC Artistic Director Gregory Doran continues his
exploration of Shakespeare’s History Plays with Henry V performed in the 600th
anniversary year of the Battle of Agincourt.
Following his performance as Hal in Henry IV Parts I & II, Alex
Hassell returns as Henry V.
